Agree. I don't think a new AD will come in and on the first month (march?) on the job, fire the basketball coach without major off the court problems.
The hiring timing will buy JJ one more do or die year.

He's also safe if it takes as long to get a new AD on board as it did for Weaver's timing to fire Greenberg, which as we all have observed firsthand, is too deep into the year to make a coaching change.

The good thing about being a lower level ACC program is that you have the ability to let things play out a little bit longer. I mean what's the harm really? It's sad but true.
